Howdy Fellow enthusiasts,   I have recently pulled trigger on Shure 846 after reading all the raving reviews.   I was impressed  by the looks and feel but I was surprisingly disappointed how these IEM's sound.   I let it "burn in" for couple of days and  changed the filter to warm filter...

Hello,   I am new to the forum, I am not a musician nor a sound engineer, nor do I write blogs. So I won't write anything that covers every aspect but just point out things that interested me, hoping that it could be some value to potential shoppers.   I own: Westone W40 Sennheiser...

I've never heard the 334s myself but hear, pun intended, they are sonically legendary, especially if you like that musicality mid forward sound. Which is why I like shure, I have the 846es, how do they compare to the 334s? And how the hell do I find 334s these days, does fitear have replacement?

i thought i would make a thread about the question above.    I'm curious that with the current market there seems to be a growing number of 500-100 universals iems. For example, the Shure 846, the sennheiser ie800, and what seems like the weston w60.   what i'm thinking is that if your...

In the last couple of days I've been looking for new in-ear headphones to buy. I had a hard time deciding between Sennheiser IE 800 and Shure SE846 until I realized that the Shure officially sells for a far higher price in Europe than in the US while Sennheiser sells for about the same in both...

According to some posts, the B&W p7 sounds better than the Shure SE 535? So how well does the Shure SE846 do against closed headphone that are considered portable such as the B&W P7?

I just received my first pair of customs from Inearz on Friday. I paid extra for a rush order and express shipping so I would have them in time for a business trip today. They arrived on time Friday afternoon, and I was able to use them over the weekend. I really like them, and the fit seemed...

Help people stepping into the high-end universal IEM market. If you could only buy one, Westone W60 ($999), Shure SE846 ($999) or WH Audio Roxanne universal ($1,299)?   Edit: WH Audio should say JH Audio.   Shure...

My Shure SE846 arrived. I was pleasantly surprised that this IEM's true subwoofer really delivers what it promises. It depends on the song. In songs with sub-bass, this IEM really impressed me. The sub-bass is very deep. I would describe it as a booming sound that you hear when a large, heavy...

    My brief two weeks with the Shure SE846 IEM's and how they compare to the Shure SE535  (and ultimately, the agony of having to send them back)   Shure IEM's have been my mainstay daily listening choice for quite a few years now. I bought my first pair of Shure IEM's back in 2007, a pair...

Has anyone had the chance to try both? I have a pair of Roxanne's on order, but it's looking like it's going to take another 8-10 weeks, so thinking about saving some money and switching to shure 846. I have never had a pair of CIEM's but I do have a pair of shure SE 535's and B&W P7's that I like

Hi,   I use Shure SE530 for many years with a 6th generation Ipod Classic (160GB), and after reading all the great feedback about the SE 846, I'm very excited and thinking of upgrading to the 846.   My question is - while using the ipod classic - what should I expect? Will the difference...

Has anyone had the opportunity to test the Roxanne against the Shure 846 and Tralucent 1+2? Sound comparisons? Bass quality, impact? Soundstage? It is a bit hard to find "relative" comparisons of each. However, any absolute responses/preferences are welcome, as I am interested in one of the...

this thread is to post comparisons of the shures 846s with other iems.  pleeeeese no other discussions. (a comparisons to jh13 & Roxanne would be greatly appreciated)

  Recently, i decide to purchase a pair of Shure SE846, as you should probably know that this piece is expensive: $999 for a brand new one. And i am just wondering what is the average lifespan of these kind of IEMs, because I will be extremely frustrated if my precious Shure broke within 5 years...

I'm looking for an upgrade that has the same signature as the 232 but a little bit thicker in the mids. I dont want a totally dark sounding iem, like the earsonics sm64 or boring like westone 4. I listen to mainly metals (Night wish and Linkin Park only), Pop, some Dance and Vocals. Considering...

Long time reader, but i don't post much. After having the Westone um3x for quite some time, i was wondering what the next logical upgrade would be?  I've tried 535's, and w4's - while both were good, i didn't necessarily like them enough over the um3x to justify buying them (borrowed each of...

As long a it does not bleed into mids is more bass generally more desirable? Sort of like what SE846 is doing? Is it completely personal preference? Some say ER4 is perfect bass, some might prefer a stronger presence like SS535....or maybe W4? Bass is maybe most subjective frequency??

Hello,   I recently got the SE846 and I came from the Westone W4. Does anybody find the cabling uncomfortable? On the Westone the cable is fairly flexible and would just rest on my ear, but the SE846 the part near the IEMs are really stiff and they just sorta stick up. It's pretty...

Hello, I am trying to make a decision on what amp+dac or dac only to pair with my SE846's. I noticed that many Ray Samuels Amps are recommended in this price range, but I also see that many full powered, non portable amps are as well. I see myself being stationary when listening to my 846's...

Hi all,   for my most portable setup I use an AK120 with SE846's. I think the combination sounds absolutely stunning, and in such a compact configuration.   I have seen a few people mention that the 3ohm output impedance of the AK120 means that it should be paired with earphones with about...

Hello,   I just recently got Shure SE846 for Christmas and consequentially my Fiio E07K that I used for my Westone W4 has died. I am looking for a good DAC or DAC/AMP for my new SE846 that will be connected to a MacBook Pro. I am thinking about purchasing the MicroStreamer.   Also, will...

hello ~  i've been using my Monster Turbine Pro Gold for about 3 Years now , and i really enjoy the sound it produce , it's very engaging and lively , full of energy . however , having so many balanced armatures & dynamics being released during the period , i wonder if anyone could suggest...

I want to write a more extensive review but  there isn't really much to write about. The bottom line is I A/B'd between the interconnects for about 30 minutes straight. I have a SE846's w silver aftermarket cabling powered by a portaphile amp connected to a ODAC via a $20 monster cable and...
